I'm crazy about the line, "And they remember it." As a description of the effect of ones lovemaking on dames. I think, had you and Stan and I encountered it in college, it would have become a staple of the lexicon. And not just for the ladies, either. "I eat a lot of french fries... AND THEY REMEMBER IT!"
